Larry...you should see if you can get this on video to see if he was rocking back and forth ..... that's how the Chosen ones pray. Oye!! Such a good boy!

There is a video, a sickening video which I will not search for and provide a link, called satan at the wailing wall that is absolutely horrible if it is indeed factual.

Millions of people from all over the world have visited the wailing wall because it clearly was something that Jesus saw. Many others have prayed there--under orthodox Jewish rules that say that a man's head must be covered when the name of God is mentioned.

And all of this no doubt confuses the masses. Why are Christians who follow Jesus praying there under Orthodox Jewish rules?

We can support Israel because God says . But we shouldn't give the appearance that the Jews and Christians are worshiping the same God by praying at a rock and doing so under Jewish rules.

This is politics over faith in Christ because it looks good for potential donors. We don't have to travel half way around the globe to pray at an old wall. It kinda takes away from the work of the Cross.

Very well said Zaac. Finally we agree on something!

Whatever Huckabee does matters little at this point. The GOP always nominates the frontrunner and all of the sudden today's frontrunner is Gov. Scott Walker. No worries, man.

No evidence that he has 'performed the vetting ritual' yet. But he will, if he's serious about being POTUS. Relax, I'll post the pic when it happens. They HAVE to be photographed as proof for all to see they've done it. It's very important.

Jewish VOTE amounts to didley squat, evangelical vote is essential.

"In 2006, 60% of the Democratic Party’s fundraising and 25% of that for the Republican Party's fundraising came from Jewish-funded Political Action Committees."

Thank God for Scott Walker:love2::thumbs:

I don't know much about Scott Walker...yet. But I was just reading this article, and I kinda don't like the tone.

Gov. Scott Walker: ‘I don’t know’ whether Obama is a Christian

...“I’ve actually never talked about it or I haven’t read about that,” Walker said, his voice calm and firm. “I’ve never asked him that,” he added. “You’ve asked me to make statements about people that I haven’t had a conversation with about that. How [could] I say if I know either of you are a Christian?”

Walker said such questions from reporters are reflective of a broader problem in the nation’s political-media culture, which he described as fixated on issues that are not relevant to most Americans.

“To me, this is a classic example of why people hate Washington and, increasingly, they dislike the press,” he said. “The things they care about don’t even remotely come close to what you’re asking about.”

Walker said he does not believe that most Americans care about such matters.“People in the media will [judge], not everyday people,” he said. “I would defy you to come to Wisconsin. You could ask 100 people, and not one of them would say that this is a significant issue.”



After the interview was completed, Walker spokeswoman Jocelyn Webster telephoned The Washington Post to say the governor was trying to make a point of principle by not answering such kinds of questions, not trying to cast doubt on Obama’s faith.

“Of course the governor thinks the president is a Christian,” she said. “He thinks these kinds of gotcha questions distract from what he’s doing as governor of Wisconsin to make the state better and make life better for people in his state.”

Walker’s comments Saturday came after a week in which he was asked repeatedly whether he agreed with former New York mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani when he said at a private dinner last Wednesday that he was not sure whether Obama loves his country. Walker was a guest at the dinner.

Red flag. I'm not feeling any candidate who believes whether or not a candidate is a follower of Christ is not a significant issue.

Scott Walker is a typical career politician. He scored his first office by moving to a district where he was more electable.

Interesting. I get a bad vibe from his pictures. Like he's hiding something. He's got a dishonest Al Gore look about himself.

If you look at his entire answer to the question he was asked by the reporter he is not making it a significant issue. The press is. I hope that you give Walker the same respect you were asking for Obama in the Islam thread and listen to what he actually said and not the spin that the left is putting on it.

“I’ve actually never talked about it or I haven’t read about that,” Walker said, according to the Post. “I’ve never asked him that,” he added, the paper said. “You’ve asked me to make statements about people that I haven’t had a conversation with about that. How [could] I say if I know either of you are a Christian?

Yeah, he is more likeable than at first seemed possible because he really wasn't known nationally. He just catapulted to the top. He is driving the Democrats nuts, which is a sign that they are afraid of him. To me, Hillary is such a loser but the Dems are set to crown her queen in Philadelphia in 2016.

Now if the GOP would just take a look at Sen. Sessions....

I did look at his entire answer.


The press is.

And that was my point. He doesn't seem to think it's a big issue.

I hope that you give Walker the same respect you were asking for Obama in the Islam thread and listen to what he actually said and not the spin that the left is putting on it.

Again, I did listen. And based upon his comments, and I could be wrong, but I get the impression, from what he said that he doesn't think a candidate's faith is much of an issue to people.

I just don't like his answer. Folks who are about Jesus generally go straight to the Cross when you ask them about faith. Politicians, who view faith as a bullet point on their resume to success, usually don't talk about it in terms of the personal relationship.

I just don't like it when folks who say they are Christians somewhat flippantly dismiss the relevance of faith to the American citizenry. It has always come across to me like someone who doesn't give a rat's patooty about the true Biblical conservatives who are the base of the GOP.

It's as though certain people don't want faith to be an issue because they don't think they can win with a Biblically conservative platform. And that may be true.

But after the last two Presidential elections, I would have hoped that they figured out that they can't win a national election by alienating the base.

Sorry Zacc I misread your post and thought that you were going after him like the press is for not jumping to Obamas defense. I see what you ate saying and can respect that.

My son lives in Wisconsin. After college he got a computer job in Madison. The man has done amazing things with very angry opposition. He survived a recall election and was handily reelected. Once while visiting there a few years ago, my son took me on a tour of the state capitol. As we walked out of the building, we got caught in an organized crowd that was shouting, "recall Walker." It took us one block or so to break free of the crowd.

Huckabee IMO is just another consummate establishment candidate like Romney or Mitch McConnell. If nominated the Republicans will lose. Walker from what I have seen is a refreshing change. There are several other candidates out there like Paul, Cruz, Rubio, and Carson. I would vote for any of them. In fact, think about a Walker Carson ticket. The only way the Democrats are going to win next year is or Republicans to nominate the typical liberal to moderate RINO like they pretty much have since Reagan left office.

Scott Walker is the real thing and has done what he said that he would do. That is why he survived the recall and why he was reelected.

In Wisconsin, the Republicans also hold both the Assembly and the Senate. Walker has the backing to proceed with his policies, which he is actually doing.

I believe that what the DNC is scared of is that the same scenario will be played out in Washington.
